Point Spread: 6.50 | -110.00 Memphis (Away)
Result: Win
T.M. Selection: Grizzlies (10* RIM-RIPPER).
I think the Blazers come in a bit dejected here. Damian Lillard and Portland have been one of the hotter teams in the bubble, but all of their hard work over their first eight games has resulted in a weird "play in" series with Memphis. If the Blazers win this game, they earn the eighth seed and play the Lakers. The Grizzlies need to win two games though in this series to advance. Can Ja Morant break out of his funk here and extend this one to a Game 2? I think the Grizz do match up well vs. Lillard and company and I wouldn't at all be shocked by an outright upset, but in the end I'll grab the points and expect this one to come right down to the wire!
T.M. Prediction: 118-110 Grizz.
